Commenting on the Agreement, Terence McKillen, Xtierra$B!G(Bs President and CEO, said, $B!H(BWe are very pleased with the outcome of negotiations with Indo Gold for the option and sale of the Laguna project.

Since the acquisition and discovery of the silver-zinc-lead-copper Bilbao project, Xtierra has shifted focus from development of Laguna to advancement of the Bilbao project through feasibility.

IGL may at any time during the due diligence periods and within one month after the expiry of the second due diligence period, exercise an option to purchase the Laguna project.

The consideration for the purchase will be a net smelter royalty of three percent (3%) for the life of the operation and a cash consideration of US$1,250,000 to be effected in two payments, one of US$500,000 upon making the election to purchase and the second of US$750,000 to be paid at the earlier of base commercial production level being achieved or 18 months after the first payment is made.

The agreement provides for advanced royalty payments of US$200,000 per annum should the base commercial production level not be achieved within twelve (12) months of receipt of the second cash purchase payment.
